Head'n Downtown

Went to the doctor for our 34th week check-up. Baby’s head is now down! No signs of any labor (other than Braxton Hicks which is normal) & that is good because it’s the longer the baby develops in the womb the healthier he or she will be!

And for those wondering, I love feeling the baby move & am cherishing this time I have but yes… I could definately be done now! My body’s ability to wake me up every several hours is preparing me for the sleep deprivation to come when the baby arrives! Matt’s wonderful about it all!

Also got doctor’s approval to use our hot tub for soothing back pains & labor (when it happens) under the condition it’s body temperture (below 100 degrees) & not for long periods at a time. You can’t imagine how big my smile got when he said that! It was like Christmas all over!!!

Welcome baby!

Thank you to my best friend & our families for planning & throwing a very nice baby shower! The clubhouse was very elegant & homey with the kitchen, dining & living room area. The fireplace was an especially nice touch. The guys especially loved the big screen tv. Thank you also to everybody who was able to join us there or send something. Your generosity was appreciated beyond words!

Now in less than two months we’ll have our little miracle in our arms & THEN I can start feeling more comfortable. Until then, limbs are poking into organs of all sorts letting us know that he or she is eager to come out & join the fun!

Promise to post pictures soon!

Moving around

Here we are at 32 weeks along & less than 2 months to go! Baby getting big & moving around is definately getting uncomfortable. Of course I haven’t slept straight through the night in months… not that it will get better! Anyhow, despite all the inconveniences I love being pregnant & feeling our baby move inside me! It’s great knowing that they’re happy no matter what right now.

The nursery is done furniture-wise & I think that our cats are sensing the impending change in our lives. Before long our lives will be happily transformed!
